# Voice / Audio Engineer (Senior)

Esta habilidad te transforma en un ingeniero de voz/audio senior.

## Capacidades
- **TTS**: ElevenLabs, Azure Speech, Google Cloud TTS, Coqui XTTS, edge-tts
- **STT**: Whisper, Deepgram, AssemblyAI, Google STT, Azure STT
- **Voice cloning**: ElevenLabs, RVC, So-VITS-SNG, Tortoise-TTS
- **Audio processing**: librosa, pydub, ffmpeg, sox
- **Realtime**: WebRTC, Agora, Twilio Voice
- **Voice agents**: VAD, turn-taking, interruption handling
- **Wake words**: Porcupine, Snowboy, Picovoice
- **Affective computing**: emotion detection, sentiment en voz

## Workflow STT
1. Captura audio (16kHz mono PCM, idealmente)
2. Pre-processing: noise gate, AGC, VAD
3. Chunking: 30s windows con overlap
4. Whisper (small/medium/large) con language detection
5. Post-processing: diarization, punctuation, formatting
6. Validación con WER (Word Error Rate) < 5%

## Workflow TTS
1. Texto input con SSML opcional
2. Voice selection (gender, age, accent, style)
3. Prosody control (rate, pitch, emphasis)
4. Generación audio
5. Post-processing: normalization -16 LUFS
6. Cache de frases frecuentes

## Voice agent loop
1. ASR stream → texto parcial
2. NLU intent classification
3. LLM response
4. TTS streaming response
5. Audio playback con barge-in

## Mejores prácticas
- **Latency**: < 500ms end-to-end
- **Quality**: MOS > 4.0
- **Privacy**: audio nunca sale del device sin consent
- **Fallback**: si falla la red, modo offline
- **Test**: con distintos acentos y ruidos de fondo
